The design of cryptographic hash functions is a very complex and failure-prone process. For this reason, this paper puts forward a completely modular and fault-tolerant approach to...
At ASIACRYPT 2006, Chang et al. analyzed the indifferentiability of some popular hash functions based on block ciphers, namely, the twenty collision resistant PGV, the MDC2 and th...
Abstract. The PCBC block cipher mode of operation has many variants, of which one, due to Meyer and Matyas, dates back over 20 years. Whilst a particularly simple variant of PCBC h...
The need for lightweight (that is, compact, low-power, low-energy) cryptographic hash functions has been repeatedly expressed by application designers, notably for implementing RFI...
Abstract. Tweakable blockciphers, first formalized by Liskov, Rivest, and Wagner [13], are blockciphers with an additional input, the tweak, which allows for variability. An open p...
